    Feng Shui or HKAT?

    This sunday I'm missing about half my group and so I plan on running a one shot pick up game. Using this as an excuse to buy a new RPG, i've wanted to get either Feng Shui or Hong Kong Action Theatre for some time. I'm wondering which one is better though. I like variety of classes and...

    "OK. Make a Will Save." POOF! Go the Fighter and Rogue

    Thanks for bringing this up, I was gonna suggest a few levels of Bard, or getting a Bard in the party. The +2 to saves Bards give is as good as Iron Will vs Charms and Fear, and stacks with it too. To adress your supposition real quick, i'm sorry but IMO 4 levels of Bard can be as usefull as 4...

    Reading a scroll while invisible?

    Nonono, sure the LIGHT is not invisible. But YOUR eyes are. The way humans see light reflects off a surface then is gathered by the eyeball. It is focused by the lenses then projected upon the back of the eye. IF you are invisible the visible light instead of being reflected within your eye...

    Chicago Gameday June 22nd - Aftermath Thread!

    Yep, great games. Thanks Nobeard and Moonlierion for the awesom times! The brain and cat litter were an excellent touch. Thanks Mr. Plemmons and Mr Durbin for the awesome swag. The stuff you gave out was excellent. In fact, I love it so much I plan on launching my review career here at...

    Reading a scroll while invisible?

    No, you can't see anything while invisible. You are effectivelly blind. Since all light passes through you it does NOT get focused in your eyeball, hence no sight. That's why you always cast Blindsight before invisiblity.

    [OT] Computer Hardware Research...?

    I prefer amdmb.com but thats because I'm an AMD fan. I can't see paying $200 more for a pentium that is generally less powerfull. If you are into pentiums though, Tom's Hardware is for you. Still, with the Hammer coming out why would you care what Inhell is doing?

    Psions, underpowered? Your experience?

    Nice post (psi)severed, you have some valid points though i'm sure from past experience our opinions differ somewhat. As always, YMMV. You mentioned chain powers, thats reminds me. A great idea for Psions, and Sorcerers as well, is to allow them to 'upgrade' their powers along the chain, i...

    Psions, underpowered? Your experience?

    Heh, i'm kinda hoping he will play them as-is so we can hear some more good stories :D I was less frustrated in High School than the months I wasted on playing Psions. But as my groups will tell you, i stick it out to playtest a class. Just playtested the Ninja class for about a month of...

    Psions, underpowered? Your experience?

    Hmm, i don't know what to adress about how wrong you are. In my experience playing them anyway. My post didn't have ANYTHING to do with playing a psion as artillery, please read my post next time. First, your points. Well, combat is a fact of life in Dungeons and Dragons. Per Core Rules...

    [WotC comes through!] City of the Spider Queen slated for September!

    Thats too bad. Anyway, thanks for the link. I see that Jason Carl is still working for WotC. I made a promise I would never buy anything with his name on it again.

    [Link] Please rate the usefulness/must have of Expert Tactician

    Smetzger, when you post links like that you just hasten them getting taken down. Thats why i never post this awesome site that has every PRC from every WotC source. Oops....

    Psions, underpowered? Your experience?

    Congradulations! You have entered the suck-filled world of PSIONICS!! You too can blow all your PP in a single combat and be useless for the rest of the game! Astound your group with your inability to take the most important powers! Wield strange looking psi attacks that pick you out of a...

    Most Ironic Winner of the WotC Setting Contest

    Britney Spears. Then the world would have to accept the coolness of gamers. John Wick is a hell of a writer, even if he is an ass sometimes. L5R and 7th Sea are some of the most fun and developed games i've ever played. Plausible? What RPG is? The point is having a good time. Or i'd like...

    Please rate Expert Tactician

    Give me a break. There are plenty of powerful combos in the core rules. Fighters getting 8 Whirlwind attacks in a round + Cleave attacks. Dual wielding rogues with Weapon Finess: short swords. Yes its a powerfull feat, so what? There are quite a few powertfull feats out there and unless you...

    For the right character its awesome. For any character its ok, likely arcaners won't be in melee. Archers also will find it has limited use. It gets better the more you devote to it in the form of supporting feats and skills. With Imp Init, a good DEX, and high Bluff it becomes awesome...

    Please rate Eagle Claw Attack

    Wrong. There is no rule that says a character cannot use an unarmed attack to sunder a weapon, or anything else for that matter.

    Chicago Gameday June 22nd - Aftermath Thread!

    He is providing characters but has been taking suggestions for the last month or so. 3rd level, he provides the stats. If you email him you may be able to get a character in before saturday, otherwise he'll have a few premade archtypes. Or so he told me.
